Lies of Locke Lamora is beautifully written gritty fantasy. Thus far there are 3 books in the series.

I've never read the Warhammer 40K books so I can speak to the quality of writing, but the series definitely matches the genre of interest.

Someone's probably already coined the term, but I'm going to call it LLM inbreeding.

Happened to me playing helldivers last night. Luckily I did not die.

Ooh didn't know about windows + arrow keys. Super useful!

If someone is using meth in prison, the whole prison should be shut down.

Lower interest rates also affect personal loans. Lower rates makes a new car more affordable.

Skin cancer is a bitch.

You may be interested in Aska. It asks the question "what if valheim was also a colony sim?". It's a bit less chill then Stardew/Portia, but it is a classless, moneyless community building game.

No clue. I tried to Google the article but to no avail.

I remember reading an article a month or two ago about a guy ordering a bunch of precursor amphetamines from China, and the distributor was able to route them through Mexico. He called it "simple" to acquire.

This is kinda funny because there is a company called LabCorp that does a lot of blood, urine, and tissue analysis for doctor's offices.

City builders and colony builders are major time sinks. Anything with micro-tasks. I just need to finish this one building, I just need to finish this prisoner recruit, I just need to ... And then it's 3 am and you have to wake up at 6 for work. Civilization games do this to me too.
